EUGENE -- Oregon could receive potentially major recruiting news Wednesday afternoon with the college announcement of Kyler Murray, an elite 2015 quarterback from Allen, Texas, who is choosing between the Ducks and Texas A&M.

The announcement, scheduled for 12:45 p.m. Pacific, is of course a non-binding verbal commitment until National Letters of Intents can be signed in February. He is ranked by 247Sports as the top dual-threat quarterback in the nation.

Murray visited Eugene in mid-April during Oregon's spring practices and has been recruited primarily by offensive coordinator Scott Frost. Rated four stars by Rivals and Scout and five stars by 247Sports and ESPN, Murray has enjoyed a charmed prep career thus far with a 27-0 record at Allen High that includes 100 touchdowns, two state championships and more than 5,000 yards passing and 2,500 yards rushing.

If Oregon adds Murray to its latest class -- which currently sits at four verbal commitments -- it would be an upset of geography and family history. His family home north of Dallas is just a three-hour drive from College Station, Texas, which is the home of the Aggies and the place where his father, Kevin, starred as A&M's quarterback in the 1980s.

Kevin Murray led the Aggies to Southwest Conference titles in 1985 and 1986 and two consecutive Cotton Bowl appearances. He now works as a quarterback tutor in the Dallas area, according to a Dallas Morning-News profile.

Kyler Murray's decision will be held in the indoor practice facility at Allen High today.
